It was definitely interesting, though it's hard to say whether it was worth reading or not. The main character incredibly unlikeable, and while I can sympathize with her to an extent, we're not given much reason to root for her. Her plan is to take drugs and sleep for a year straight, and at the end, it comes across like we're supposed to think she's on the path to healing - but it's just not believable. As a whole, it felt kind of underwhelming and was hard to invest in.
